Sadness Sets Me Free

In the nightclub of my mind, I'm doing cocaine in the cloakroom

Come and set me free from my vain and selfish ways

For in the gemstones of your eyes, I see stars that shine forever

So come and set me free from my vain and selfish ways

Your companionship will keep me on the dance floor of the commune

And from the road to ruin, I'll emerge a better me

But from the corner of my eye, I see that darkness always follows

And by now, you know that I know only sadness sets me free

Sadness sets me free

Only sadness sets me free

In the mirror of the truth is a question mark of candour

Come and set me free from my vain and selfish ways

For in the showroom of your heart, I see the courage of a kestrel

So come and set me free from my vain and selfish ways

Your commitment could coerce me into fruitful coexistence

My persistence will be boundless, and the future wide and clear

But in the corner of my heart is a kernel of resistance

And by now, you know that I know only sadness sets me free

Sadness sets me free

Only sadness sets me free

The beam of your moon lights those rocks in my way

Your laughter evaporates the struggles of the day

But in the shiny sea of life is the longboat of frustration

Cursing without comfort, only sadness sets me free

Sadness sets me free

Only sadness sets me free

Sadness sets me free

Only sadness sets me free

Sadness sets me free

Sadness sets me free

Sadness sets me free

Sadness sets me free
